Magenta-β-D-glucuronide cyclohexylammonium sal

(Magenta-β-D-GlcA CHX; Magenta-β-D-glucuronide cyclohexylammonium salt; 5-Bromo-6-chloro-3-indoxyl-β-D-glucuronic acid, cyclohexylammonium salt)

Molecular Biology Grade

Magenta-β-D-GlcA CHX is a white crystalline powder that is used as a chromogenic substrate for β-D-glucuronidase, yielding a magenta precipitate. It is used to detect β-D-glucuronidase positive bacterial colonies as an alternative to 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl-β-glucuronide or X-GlcA.

Store at -15°C dry, and protect from light.
